God, those two pockets Platon has shown us are even worse than mine. Wrong, wrong, wrong!
Having said that, I do like my Wested. It is well made and the goat is real nice. But it looks like some guy who hasn't seen an Indy movie in years made it from memory. If you're going to burn anything Platon, burn that certificate of authenticity. It's a crock.
I do agree about Todd. His work has been very interesting to me. I actually like that prototype jacket, even if the pockets are a little small. Hey, small is a nice change from GIGANTIC. And I agree about Todd's pocket flap. Nice shape.
Just for your interest. I spoke to a leading maker of leather jackets here in Melbourne. He says he can no longer make kangaroo leather jackets. Apparently all the kanga leather goes overseas. I am angry at this loss. The country of the kangaroo - #### there's a plague of them at the moment and we can't get the leather here!!!!
I can't remember who posted it, and can't seem to find it in the search engine,...but there was a pocket flap fix posted awhile ago.
Could help alot of people get over their flap scallop inadequecies.
If I recall, you soak the flap with water, and stretch the leather, till it forms the shape. As it dries, it retains the new shape. It looked like it worked well, and there were even pictures to prove it.
Anyone remember this?

It was me who posted that. It works. Problem is the flap retains the new shape for 2-3 days and then gets back to normal.
I find it annoying having to soak and pull/stretch it every two days.
And a pair of your trousers too whilst you're at it
